[Chorus]
There was romance in the air for sure
There was romance in the air
When the autumn sun lights Sharmon Palms
There was romance in the air
[Verse 1]
Sitting on the steps, shit-head drunks
We had a crew and we called it The Skunx
Punk rockers, skinhead, misfits and misunderstood kids
Me and Ben, we spent years by the palm trees drinking beers
When the center of the universe was a street called Sharmon Palms
[Chorus]
There was romance in the air for sure
There was romance in the air
When the autumn sun lights Sharmon Palms

[Bridge]
Nah nah nah nah nah, nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah
Nah nah nah nah nah, nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah
[Verse 2]

My best friend he crumbled and he withered away
I went back to the palm trees, the safest place that Ben could ever be
Mixed his ashes with the dirt, he'll be safe there
[Chorus]
There was romance in the air for sure
There was romance in the air
When the autumn sun lights Sharmon Palms
There was romance in the air
[Outro]
Nah nah nah nah nah, nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah
Nah nah nah nah nah, nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah
